Breviloquium

St. Bonaventure

This book is in Latin.

A compendium of theology written about 1257: a prologue on Scripture and seven parts on the Trinity, the creation of the world, the corruption of sin, the incarnation of the Word, the grace of the Holy Spirit, the sacramental remedy and the state of the final judgment. The Latin is the Quaracchi text (Tria opuscula, 3rd ed., 1911), from an OCR scan, without the editors’ critical notes.

Where the scan lost a chapter heading the chapters run together under one title (Pars IV 4-5, Pars V 2, 4-6 and 8, 10).
